The Columbia Association, which operates 23 pools in Howard, will join other communities that have made similar accommodations to create a more welcoming atmosphere for Muslims and other female swimmers.

BALTIMORE SUN When Shehlla Khan’s husband became ill, it fell on her to take their three children to the pool. But for Khan, who is Muslim, the task was difficult. The Columbia resident said she was concerned about people watching her swim in the conservative, cover-all dress required by Islamic dress codes, and thinking: “What’s wrong? Why can’t you take it off?”

Correction — they’re not religious beliefs, they’re muslim beliefs.

I would NEVER have my family go to these pools ever. We have a private pool in our community that only people who live in our neighborhood can use. I would NEVER have my family use a public pool. I would rather them sweat or me pull out a hose than to use a public pool. How disgusting in so many ways.

The title is misleading. Columbia was the Rouse Company’s first planned housing development in Howard County, Maryland. The Columbia Association is the ruling entity for Columbia and owns the pools. The pools are some of the private amenities for residents of Columbia, all of whom pay mandatory HOA fees for the privilege.

The State of Maryland and Howard County have nothing to do with this decision.

The school system is a myth. No better than any other. The main reason it’s “better” is because of the demographics - affluent or at least well-off people of professional calibre tend to congregate here.

Take it from my mom, a teacher here almost from the time she moved here for 20 years - back in the “old days”. And I’m a student alumna here, as are my elder siblings. Even back then they were forced into a LOUSY Kolumbia school. We can vouch there are at least 2 Kolumbia high schools that are and have been lousy all their lives; the others are overrated.

Raghid Shourbaji, president of the Howard County Muslim Council, said the need is growing because the county’s Muslim population is growing. He said another indoor pool in Jessup has a similar program, but he hopes the one in Columbia will be more convenient.

Is Jessup part of Columbia? It is on the other side of I-95 and looks to be closer to Ft. Meade than the township of Columbia.

I want my own HOV lane and commuting time; I'm concerned about people watching me drive.

I got a good chuckle out of that one!
Wouldn’t it be nice to have it really happen?
Maybe it could be something along the lines of Candid Camera. You record them while the freak parade is full swing. Record and download to youtube.

Kolumbia skools probably still a lot better than those in ‘PeeGee’ County. LOL.

Yeah - again, because of the demographics. ;-)

No, Jessup far predates Kolumbia; it’s a classic “Route 1” area. But some in Jessup try to co-opt the “Columbia” banner to attract people.
